Top CriticRed Sonja returns to those olden days when women were women and the menfolk stood around with funny hats on until called forth to be whacked at.
Worst of all, there's a charmless brat prince for Sonja to take under her wing.

Juicy Cerebellum
Horrible spawn of the mediocre Conan the Barbarian.
